Specifications: ICAM1 / CD54 antibody [MEM-111] (PE)

Full Name

intercellular adhesion molecule 1

Product Description

PE-conjugated Mouse Monoclonal antibody [MEM-111] to CD54

Background

CD54 (ICAM-1) is a 90 kD member of the C2 subset of immunoglobulin superfamily. It is a transmembrane molecule with 7 potential N-glycosylated sites, expressed on resting monocytes and endothelial cells and can be upregulated on many other cells, e.g. with lymphokines, on B- and T-lymphocytes, thymocytes, dendritic cells and also on keratinocytes, chondrocytes, as well as epithelial cells. CD54 mediates cell adhesion by binding to integrins CD11a/CD18 (LFA-1) and to CD11b/CD18 (Mac-1). The interaction of CD54 with LFA-1 enhances antigen-specific T-cell activation.Entrez Gene (human): 19p13.3-p13.2

Synonyms

BB2, CD54, P3.58, ICAM1, ICAM-1

Specificity

The antibody MEM-111 reacts with CD54 (ICAM-1), a 85-110 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein (receptor for rhinovirus). The expression of CD54 is upregulated by activation; it is expressed on activated endothelial cells, T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, monocytes, macrophages, granulocytes and dendritic cells.
